On the verge of reaching the 1,000 points for his career, Henrik Sedin delivered the perfect response when asked if he would have family in town to celebrate the milestone.
"Well, Daniel will be here," Henrik said, according to TSN 1040's Jeff Paterson.
Yes, Daniel will be there all along.
The Sedin brothers have racked up 1,966 points between them since breaking into the NHL together in 2000. Henrik is reaching the milestone a few months sooner, due to dressing in 23 more games and owning a fractionally higher points-per-game rate than his sibling.
| Games Played | Goals | Assists | Points | Points/G | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Henrik | 1212 | 232 | 767 | 999 | 0.824 |
| Daniel | 1189 | 366 | 601 | 967 | 0.813 |
It will be a special night for all if the Sedins can combine for a goal Friday night versus Roberto Luongo's Florida Panthers.
